    Description

    Hi!
    We are a family of 4 on the west coast of Ireland. We love to be outdoors and love to be active; whether that is surfing, cycling, hiking or swimming! Our small town is really well known for surfing.
    We have a 4 year old who is super arty, loves gymnastics and cycling and we have a 7 year old who absolutely loves soccer!

    Cultural exchange and learning opportunities

    We are more than happy for you to become part of our house and really settle in.
    If you need English language practice, you will definitely have plenty of conversations here with us as adults and the kids of course.
    Our town has some surf schools and hostels where summer workers usually hang out. We can try and arrange for you to call in and meet some people there.

  • Help

    Help

    We are looking for someone to help us with some childcare hours while the kids are off school during the summer months. Ideally, we need someone from 9am-1pm, 4/5 days a week.
    We are looking for someone who has experience with kids, someone who really likes being around kids and would like to be active with them...from playing in the garden to games or art & crafts.
    In return, you will have plenty of free time for surfing or whatever outdoor activity you like. We have a private bedroom for you with a shared bathroom and all meals will be looked after.
    Because we live in a small surf town on the west coast of Ireland, we really would need someone who is independent in their free time and happy to explore the outdoors. Our town has some coffee shops etc., but this is not a bustling city vibe.
    If any of this sounds like it could be a good adventure to you, then we would be more than happy to have a chat!

    What else ...

    We live in a small surf town so if you like to surf then that is something you could do with your free time! If you want to bring boards or a bike, then we will have storage space for you.
